A correspondent who has been read
ing the anecdotes about senator's in
our last number, was an witness
OF the following occurrences
At New York City, in the fall Of
1856, a case was tried before Judge
Sutherland, in which the law firm OF
Evarts, Southmayd & Choate appear
ed for the defense. Mr.. Evarts made
the concluding argument, and the
fame of the great counselor secured
for him q considerable audience OF
lawyers from neighboring courts, in
addition to many persons who had
more or less interest in the proceed
ings.
Mr.. Evarts had been speaking for
some time, and was evidently nearing
his peroration. He began to sum up
his arguments, and asked impressive
ly what answer could be made to
them. Again he placed the points in
lucid array, and asked again a SINH
lar question. Then % third time he
restated his case with vivid eloquence,
and once more, in louder tones,
wound up With
What is their answer"
He paused. You could have heard
a pin drop. Suddenly the door OF the
courtroom opened, and a peddler,
sticking his bead and a feather buster
into the opening, cried out.
"Broomsl''
In moment the room was ringing
with uncomfortable laughter, in which
everybody joined-even the Judge on
the bench and the orator himself.
Mr.. Evarts, however, kept on his feet,
and was the first to recover his COM
posture. With his hand raised to COM
mand attention, as the roar subsidized,
he said, solemnly:
"That was not, indeed, the reply
which expected. But you may rest
assured that when you do get their
answer you will find it equally friv-
olous and inconeequent."

The military marriage in France is
a serious affair. Any officer Wishing
to marry must inform his superior Of
his intentions. The declaration is
forwarded to headquarters and plac-
ed before the minister OF war, who
orders an investigation of the moral
character and pecuniary qualifca-
tions OF the young lady concerned.
She must be OF irreproachable moral
character and have a fortune Of
$4,000 n year. These conditions being
fulfilled the marriage can proceed. E.

FRIDAY EVENING, JANUARY 7.

DYNAMITERs AT WoRK,-At late hour
Wednesday night the residents il the vicln-
ity of Ninth and Harrison streets, San Fran
cisco, were startled by terrific explosion.
Most of them had retired, and being a"ak-
ened from their sleep they ran out into the
street In their night clothing. The first I'M
preston created was that an earthquake
had shaken down some buildings in the
neichborhood, but an investigation disclosed
the fact that dynamite cartridge had oeen
placed in the cable slot on the Larkln street
branch of the Suffer street railroad ano eX
nloded The basalt rocks in either SIDE ri
the slot were found to be loosened ana inc
masonry work badly shattered. Inc pni-
levs npon which the cable runs were also
broken and the foundation of the tunnel
cracked. Window panes in the vicinity
were ratified violently at the time OF the
explosion. 10 saloon two blocks away
lighted lamp was thrown TO the floor and
nearly caused confagration. Inc iron
mates on the manholes of the track were
found 200 feet away, to which distance they
were hurled A lady who lives ID the
neighborbood said that few minutes before
the explosion she saw two men go 10 Tue
trap. One of them lifted the trap ana the
other took package from his pocket, a,p-
piled match to it and lowered it into the
tunnel. The men then secreted themselves.
The explosion followed, and the lady saw
the cable and machinery of the trap Tying
in all ways. Many of the awakened women
and children were so badly frightened tnat
thew went to the homes OF friends to spend
the night, fearful that If they remained ~
their own homes another explosion migu'
occur and shatter the houses

ALEXANDRIA GazettG.

The GAZETTE is now the Oldest paper in
the State. and with few exceptions the old
est in the country and its usefulness mas
been demonstrated and appreciated during
the EIGHTY SEVEN YEARS oiits existence. In
its columns has always been found mirror
of passing events, aud the careful chrOni-
cling of the history of what is going on in the
world has ever been its aim. 1t is always
welcomed in the household, while in the
counting room and workshop it bias become
invaluable.
The GAZETTE has better facilities for ob-
tanning news than any paper outside of the
national capital. Situated as it is SO close
to the great centre of news, it enjoys daily
the benefit of the Associated Press dis
patches from every part ofthe world hence
its patrons can read from its columns in the
evening what has transpired that day in
every portion of our owp domain as we'll IS
from every part of the babitabe globe.
Consequently it is an every day occurrence
for the GAZETTE to publish kilograms from
the various European capitals twelve and
fifteen hours earlier than the morning pa.
pers.
Another feature that serves to make the
GAZETTE a great desideratum with mer-
chants is its afternoon market reports from
New York, Baltimore Chicago and other
centres.
Correspondence from Washington, Rich
mond and every section of the State, is pub
lished regularly, and all events OF interest
occurring within the bounds of the Com
monwealth are to be found in the columns
of the GAZETTE
The local department furnishes full and
complete history of everything that occurs
in and near the city, and this feature will,
as ever. receive careful attention.
The GAzETrE's circulation is steadily in
creasing, especially among people who cen
suit its advertising columns before purchas'
ing. That this is self-evident may be infer
red from the fact that large country edi
tion-nearly as large as the daily--is sent
all over this section of country three tines
8 week, and is read by thousands, most of
whom send here or to contiguous cities to
make purchases. The advantages of adj
vertisipg in the GAZETTE are, therefore, ap-
parent.

An account of the services IN West
minister Abbey says that the great
event before Queen Victoria arrived was
the march down the nave of the Queen
of the Sandwich Islands. This dusky
royalty wore black dress upon which
was embroidered various birds and
flowers of the Sandwich Islands. Not
a single bird or flower was omitted.
Across her buxom breast was a broad
red sash. She was attended by the.
Princess, who is travelling with her,
who wore similar dress but not so
extensively embroidered. The way
that the Queen Of the Sandwich Is
lands swept down the aisle from one
side to the other was an interesting
sight.

At Marshalltown, Iowa, on the 2Srd,
Peter Van Roukin, an old and wealthy
citizen and elder in the Presbyterian
Church, was swindled out Of $4,000 in cash,
by an ancient confidence game. An
ostensible land buyer, after looking ut his
farm, induced Van Roukin to accompany
him to look over the neighbours land that
was for sale On the road they met man
with card lottery game and Van Roukin
was induced to try it. He drew $1,000 and
being required to show up q like amount,
borrowed $1,000 Of the land buyer, and
drove back to town and got the balance,
all Of which he placed in the land buyers
hands. The S., 600 won was also put in land
buyers hands and the game proceeded.
This time SIC, COO being drawn by the latter,
